What is encrypted traffic visibility in Illumio?

Encrypted traffic visibility in Illumio refers to the capability to analyze and understand traffic that is encrypted in order to effectively apply security policies. This functionality is crucial because a significant amount of network traffic today is encrypted, making it difficult to ascertain whether the communication conforms to security policies and regulatory requirements. By gaining visibility into encrypted traffic, organizations can ensure that even secured communications are subject to the necessary control measures. This enables the enforcement of policies that protect sensitive data and maintain compliance with security standards, ultimately improving overall network security posture.

The other options do not align with the concept of encrypted traffic visibility. For instance, the suggestion of viewing only unencrypted traffic does not address the challenge of monitoring modern network communications effectively. Similarly, monitoring network speed and bandwidth usage or inspecting non-secure traffic lacks the specific focus on encryption that is central to the topic.
